TV+Radio Distribution amplifier with 2 or 4 outlets. Connect UHF source (or TV aerial) and VHF radio aerial to the inputs. (Photo shows "F" connectors with plastic dust caps fitted). You should use a decombiner or Diplex wall plates to separate VHF and UHF signals.

Qty

Specifications:

1 VHF input 85-240 MHz. Variable input attenuation (10dB).
1 UHF input 470-862 MHz. Variable input attenuation (10dB) and TETRA filtering.
4 outputs with10dB gain. Less than 3.5dB noise. 92 dBµV max.

This masthead amplifier can be fitted to the aerial pole or in the roof space as close as possible to the aerial. It receives its 12 volt power feed from the P1235 power supply which can be fitted anywhere in the coaxial cable leading from the aerial to the VCR or TV but the cable must not have anything connected that will block the power (such as an isolated wall plate socket or a "Y" splitter).

Connections should be coated with silicone grease if installed outdoors.

Specifications:

  • Wide band covering channels 21 - 68
  • Gain: 14dB
  • Gain spread (flatness): +/- 1dB
  • Noise figure: 1.9dB
  • Output: DIN 45004 - 100dbuv
  • Power requirement: 12v DC at 10mA

  • Mounting: 2 hole (screws not supplied).

Also see twin-output power supplies, below.

 

IMPORTANT: When a power supply is used to feed an amplifier upstairs, any wall plate MUST be a non-isolated type, otherwise the aerial signal will get through but the DC power won't. An isolated (decoupled) plate is often marked with a capacitor symbol -||- so if yours has this (or obviously has capacitors fitted inside) don't use it unless you short-circuit the capacitors. In addition, any "TV plug" between the PSU and amplifier must be soldered to the cable, otherwise a poor or intermittent connection is likely to interrupt viewing now or in the future,

SAFETY NOTICE: Electrical equipment which is installed in a loft or roof space should, wherever possible, be mounted on a brick or concrete surface. There have been rare instances of equipment catching fire so every precaution should be taken to prevent spread of fire. Powered equipment needs good ventilation and should be kept away from flammable materials such as cardboard, paper, plastic etc. Where a separate power supply is used, mount it on a wall with good ventilation. On no account lie it on a carpet or rug.

Why would you use this masthead amplifier?

You would normally use it where the signal provided by the aerial is slightly too low and it is not possible to improve it by replacing the aerial with a better type. You would also use it where the signal is adequate but where the cable is picking up interference and can not be replaced with a better type of cable. (In the latter case you would fit an attenuator at the far end of the cable. This will reduce the signal to its original level AND reduce the level of interference.

It is important to install the amplifier fairly close to the aerial because the cable between the aerial and amplifier can pick up interference, especially from mains wiring in the loft and from passing traffic. The amplifier will boost this interference so you should minimise the length of cable AND you should use double-shielded cable between the aerial and the amplifier. It is also recommended that you use double-shielded cable for the down feed from the amplifier.

Power Supplies

Fringe P1285/2 power supply 2 TV outputs 12v/85mA £17.95

Qty


TV plugs MUST be soldered to the cable for use with this P1285/2.

Fringe F1285/2 power supply 2 F outputs 12v/85mA £17.95

Qty


F1285/2 requires 'F' plugs.


Why would you need these power supplies?

These power supplies do the same job as the P1285/1, above, but they have two output sockets to feed two separate television systems. This is handy if you are sharing an aerial with a neighbour or if you need to run a cable to a second TV. They can supply up to 85mA of current and are fine for the WB1214 masthead amplifier, above and our DAT45 and DAT75 aerials if they are equipped with an MRD (See Televes aerial page).

Please bear in mind that all splitters reduce the signal by more than 50% (3dB) so you may need to increase your amplifier gain to compensate.

We can supply all "Vision" products. If you don't see what you need, please ask.

Can I order these separately?

Yes, by popular request. Apparently some receivers are able to supply 5 volts via the aerial feed and our amplifiers work with this, so you don't need to order a power supply.

The 4 way (& 2 way) amplifiers both take 45mA @ 5 volts DC. They can also run off a 12 volt supply.

Amp and PSU use 'F' plugs. Please choose plugs to match your cable.

If you have a cable which is already carrying combined signals from a UHF, VHF and/or FM and/or DAB aerial, this amplifier can selectively boost them and feed all combined signals to two outputs. It's effectively a wideband TV and radio signal splitter with adjustable gain on the UHF channel and a separate gain control for the VHF/FM/DAB channel.

Cable for Digital satellite and TV

To ensure the best possible reception you would be wise to use double-screened coaxial cable. No point in buying the best aerial then using poor quality cable! Read more about this on page 8

CT100 and H109 cable is what Sky use for digital satellite installation.

Short lengths (up to 30 metres) can be supplied.

Twin coaxial cable available. Clips available.

Please choose from drop-down list, below.

DIPLEXER S AND FILTERS at £9.95

An aerial/aerial Diplexer is actually a filtered UHF aerial combiner which has two inputs for TV aerials that point in different directions and pick up signals from different channels. Normally you can't combine these signals because you would get "ghosting" or "cancellation" of signals. However, the diplexer allows through two specific bands of UHF channel frequencies while filtering out the opposite bands from each aerial.

It can also be used with a single aerial to filter out unwanted TV channels, leaving those UHF channel numbers free for you to use for your VCR, DVD, Satellite Receiver, ONdigital receiver RF output, Game Station, etc. Ask for free 75 Ohm resistor if you intend to use it this way!

Because there is a variety of types, dependent on your location and the channels that you want to use, the one you need may not be in stock. Please be patient while we obtain it for you.

Note that there is some attenuation near the split point frequency: for example, if you want to receive channel 33, do NOT order 21-33 + 35-69 as 33, 34 and 35 will be significantly attenuated.

Connections should be protected with silicone grease if mounted outdoors.
